I have trouble calling Indy 1-3 a trilogy, since they are three separate stories. There is no through line. Yeah they feature the same character so they meet the broader definition of a trilogy, but not in the same way as BTTF or LOTR.
Back To The Future is turning 40!
- Thread starter Newt
- Start date
Also 2 takes place before 1, which is weird for a trilogy.
Well Back to the future part 3 takes place before 1 and 2
Haha sorry couldn't help myself. I make like a tree and get out of here.
I was in ninth grade when BTTF came out. I saw it 13 times in the theater.
The only movie I've done that more times, is Star Trek IV.

13 times wow..
Think the movie I saw the most at the theatre was First Contact, 4 times..
10 years after the future version of BTTF, do you guys think our current world tech is more or less of a disappointment?
Hard mode: No counting the flying cars.

It's definitely more realistic. Not as ridiculously cartoonish as BTTF's 2015 was.
And I could definitely do without the flying cars. If those existed IRL, it would scare the bejeezus out of me. Those damn things could come crashing down on your house at any time!

I want my damn hoverboard!
...and not those bulky things people have been experimenting with that kind of work.
I want the light, easygoing hoverboard!

App based food delivery feels more futuristic than little pizza going big.It's definitely more realistic. Not as ridiculously cartoonish as BTTF's 2015 was.

Oh yeah, imagine getting your home electricity from garbage.I only really want Mr. Fusion at this point.
That actually would be better tech for regular people.
Closest thing we have now.. eh.. Anker or Jackery power blocks?
Nah not disappointed. I could never figure out how to skate board let alone a hover board.
We do have apple vision pro now almost like what Marty's kids where using at their homes.
The door with fingerprint recognition could easily of been a thing, as we had it on our phones and laptops for years now.
I can't find a link right now but they actually were trying that like a decade ago, with supercooled semi-conductors having an anti-gravity effect over a ceramic path.
Dunno why they stopped experimenting though. Like how they hyped up graphene as the next big thing that went nowhere, mass applications were very limited.
